Happy Monday everyone - how was the weekend? - Anxiety Message Board

I seem to feel a lot better on the weekends - probably because I don't have "work stress". I managed to go Xanax free on Saturday *whooo hooo* and went out & had a couple of beers and saw a band that night & had a great time.

Yesterday was decent until late afternoon - then had some anxiety start up & didn't have any Xanax becuz I was out walking the dog. Boy - I couldn't wait to get home - phew!!

It's monday & I'm doing okay... the mornings always seem to be better than late in the day.

How is everyone else doing???

Im doing OK
its a good idea to carry a xanax tablet with you when out and disolve it under the tongue if needed
its not a good idea to deal with anxiety or panic by returning home, stay put and deal with it, then continue with your day, if at all possible

Thank you - I will definitely be sure to have a Xanax on me at all times from now on. I was thinking the exact same thing at the time.... I'll have to stash on in my pocked

Glad your weekend went well and thanks for asking how everyone's went. That's so kind of you. Mine went OK. Better than most have been for me. I think I'm making progress.

I take xanax, also. Been on it for almost 20 years. I have them with me at all times, but try not to take them if I don't absolutely have to. The trick of putting xanax under your tongue is one I have had to do a couple of times, and I must say, for a little pill it's the nastiest one on earth. lol If your at hom and want them to work faster, take them with something hot. That has helped me, too.

I find your post to be positive and kind. It's good to talk about the good times once in a while. The don't come very often for some of us.

Have a good week and thanks again for your post.......Connie
